BILL NUMBER: AB 2950
VETOED DATE: 09/30/2008
To the Members of the California State Assembly:
I am returning Assembly Bill 2950 without my signature.
In 2005, the Federal Communications Commission adopted rules that
prohibit sending unwanted commercial e-mail messages to wireless
devices without prior permission. In addition, California's
anti-spam laws are among the toughest in the nation. Given these
circumstances, AB 2950 appears to be unnecessary and may possibly
invite excessive litigation for a nuisance that does not result in
any damages or losses.
For these reasons I am unable to sign this bill.
Sincerely,
Arnold Schwarzenegger
